Sahana (raga)
Sahana (pronounced sahānā) is a popular ragam (musical scale) in Carnatic music. It is a janya rāgam (derived scale) associated with the 28th Melakarta rāgam Harikambhoji. The Hindustani music ragam ''Sahana'' is an upper-tetrachord-dominant Kanada-anga raga, from the Kafi thaat, also allied with Bageshree and Bhimpalasi. The shuddha Dhaivat is an important rest note (nyaas swara). Structure and Lakshana It is a ''Ubhaya Vakra sampoorna ragam''. ''Vakra'' means crooked. ''Ubhaya Vakra'' means that the notes in both ascent and descent follow a zig zag pattern. The notes in ascending and descending scale do not follow a strict progression. Hence the note phrases contain such ''vakra'' phrases, lending a unique beauty to this rāgam. Though it is a ''sampoorna rāgam'' (contains all 7 notes), the ''vakra'' scale means it is not considered a ''melakarta'', as melakarta rāgams must have strictly ascending and descending scales. It is also classified as a ''rakti raga'' (raga ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sahana (TV Series)
''Sahana'' (titled as ''Sahana - Sindhu Bhairavi 2'') is an Indian Tamil-language TV series produced by K. Balachander. It is a sequel to the 1985 film '' Sindhu Bhairavi'' which Balachander directed. The first episode was aired on Jaya TV on 24 February 2003. Cast Production Development Though K. Balachander had been toying with the idea of making a sequel to his 1985 film '' Sindhu Bhairavi'' for over 10 years since the early 1990s, he eventually abandoned the idea as he believed people would compare it unfavourably to the film. Near the end of the TV series '' Anni'', produced by his company Minbimangal, he went searching for an idea for his next series and rediscovered the sequel to the film he had written years before, albeit not very diligently. The title of the series ''Sahana'' is a reference to the Carnatic raga of the same name. Casting Balachander initially wanted the main cast of the film to reprise their roles in the series.
